Research Facilities

Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometer (LCMS)

LCMS

Brand: 

(LC) Agilent / (MS) AB Sciex
 

Model: 

(LC) 1290 UPLC / (MS) 3200 QTrap

 

The combination of Agilent 1290 UPLC and AB Sciex 3200 QTrap system is Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) system.  It provides excellent sensitivity, superior dynamic range, and reliability across a range of identification and quantitation applications.  This instrument provides a combination of linear ion trap and triple quadrupole functionality, uniquely allowing both qualitative and quantitative analyses to be carried out in a single experiment.

 

The liquid chromatography (LC) can safely separate a very wide range of organic compounds, from small-molecule drug metabolites to peptides and proteins.  Mass spectrometers (MS) can generate three dimensional data.  In addition to signal strength, they generate mass spectral data that can provide valuable information about the molecular weight, structure, identity, quantity, and purity of a sample.  Mass spectral data add specificity that increases confidence in the results of both qualitative and quantitative analyses.
